British Britannia Half Ounce £50 Gold Coin

We Buy Half Britannia Gold Coins 

The Half Britannia, sometimes referred to as the £50 Britannia after its nominal face value, is the second largest coin commonly minted in The Royal Mint's Britannia gold bullion range. The coin's appeal lies partly in its affordability in relation to the 1oz Britannia. However, despite this more accessible entry price, buyers still enjoy the favoured design and robust specification synonymous with the Gold Britannia coin series. 

Who Is Britannia?

Britannia has served as the female representation of her nation since the Roman conquest of 2,000 years ago. She is commonly depicted fully equipped with a Corinthian helmet, trident, shield, and olive branch - all of which speak to her powerful qualities and what she represents. 

Numerous design interpretations have graced the bullion series named for her, including the Half Britannia releases, although all often include the above aspects. Our in-house numismatists will happily explain the artist and design behind your coin, and will be sure to let you know if your Half Britannia is of exceptional, premium quality and adjust or valuation accordingly. 

Half Britannia Specification 

As with other members of the Britannia family, The Royal Mint shifted the alloy in 2013 from 22ct to 24ct gold alloy. While this shift does alter the gross weight of the coins, the intrinsic gold value remained the same. Therefore, it pays to be wary of dealers claiming the 22ct version is less valuable when valuing your Half Britannia on the bullion market.
